Fruit and Vegetable Gardening
Local production of fruits and vegetables is important to the citizens of Kansas, from home gardeners to commercial producers. As part of a dynamic industry, our faculty and staff work with extension agents statewide to provide homeowners and industry members with relevant information for their project.
Local food promotion efforts include:
- Survey regarding barriers to marketing local fruits and vegetables
- Research comparing consumption vs. production of fruits and vegetables in the Kansas River Valley
- Collaboration with Kansas Local Foods for selling local food
